Chapter Thirty-Five: Wan Youcai's Decision
In the house, Lin'an King Zhao Wenzong was reading at night, when a figure quietly appeared behind him.
"Your Majesty, there has been no news from Ouyang Kun for a month."
King Lin'an gently put down the book in his hand, his face turned slightly cold, "Have you ever looked for him?"
"I personally went to the dungeon three times. The strange thing is that the original entrance and exit have completely disappeared, and the entire dungeon is shrouded in magic circles. I searched many times but could not enter. I am worried..."
King Lin'an suddenly felt uneasy. Since he sent his bodyguard Ouyang Kun to the "Fugitives' Paradise" ten years ago, the underground force he recovered has provided him with a steady stream of financial guarantees, which is indispensable in his plan.
The missing part. But now, it's obvious that something is wrong with Ouyang Kun. Let's not talk about the problem of rupture of funding. He is worried that if Ouyang Kun is not strict and betrays himself, it will be a bit troublesome.
Thinking of this, he hoped that Ouyang Kun would be killed, so that the dead man would not tell any secrets. Anyway, Ouyang Kun's contribution in the past ten years has been enough, and the worst he can do is cultivate another underground force.
He raised his head and said to the figure, "Go and confirm whether Ouyang Kun is still alive. If he is alive, do everything you can to get him..."
Without needing too much attention from King Lin'an, the figure nodded and left. King Lin'an was alone in the room, meditating in front of the case. After thinking about it for a long time, he picked up a pen and hurriedly wrote a secret letter and sent it out overnight.
Then he continued to pick up the "Emperor's Sutra" in his hand and continued to read it at night.
The early morning sunshine was quiet and elegant. Yun Yi had already dressed up early, put on a brand new light green slim-fitting cheongsam, and came to the conference room on the top floor of Wanque Tower.
Looking at this cheongsam that can outline her exquisite curves, the more she looks at it, the more she likes it. Since this Ling's shop can design clothes that fit the body so well, they are comfortable to wear and can also bring out the feminine temperament to the greatest extent.
The cheongsam with its outstanding degree is really admirable.
Compared with the previous three-layered clothes and skirts, it is simple and comfortable. Since Ling's shop launched a variety of cheongsams, the beauty-loving ladies in Donghai City have been rushing to buy them. If it weren't for the fact that cheongsams have certain effects on the figure.
If you ask for it, maybe the girls and young women in every household in Donghai City will buy a few of them.
The shopkeepers of Wanquelou next to Yunyi were completely attracted by the graceful and perfect figure outlined by the slim cheongsam. They couldn't bear to look away from Yunyi, and they made bursts of noise from time to time.
Appreciative "tsk tsk" sounds.
It wasn't until Wan Youcai appeared that everyone calmed down and looked away reluctantly. Wan Youcai glanced at Yun Yi's cheongsam exclusively sold by Ling's Shop, and his expression was obviously not very good.
Of course, Yunyi also knew that the boss didn't like her wearing this cheongsam, but she didn't care. In the past six months or so, Wanquelou's business has been deteriorating, and the auction house has not started auctioning for three months. It's serious.
It affected the income of her and her subordinates at the auction house.
Therefore, just the day before yesterday, she had agreed to the invitation from the Ling Family Shop and agreed to join the Ling Family Shop auction house and become the chief auctioneer of the Ling Family.
Of course, Wan Youcai doesn't know about this yet. Yunyi plans to resign from his position as the chief auctioneer of Wanquelou Auction House immediately after today's meeting, and takes a few right-hand assistants to go to the Ling family to start the next glorious journey.
"Artai, please report on last month's performance!" Wan Youcai said to an old man wearing a black round hat and a pair of reading glasses on his face.
"The downward trend continued last month. The overall performance of the entire Wanquelou fell rapidly, with less than one-tenth of the original. In particular, the auction houses and drug stores have experienced a cliff-like decline. There have been three auction houses
The monthly income is zero, and the merchants and owners who provided the auction items to Wanquelou have also switched to the Lingjiapu auction house, which makes it impossible for us to carry out auction activities.
The drug store only had a sales of 1,543 taels this month, and this is also due to some old customers. After all, they have been seeing doctors and dispensing medicines in Wanquelou for a long time, so they have formed a habit.
However, Shopkeeper Tong has lost a lot of doctors. Currently, there are only four doctors still in the pharmacy." Wan Youcai cast a serious look at Shopkeeper Tong, who almost wanted to crawl into the table.
It went down.
When Artai saw that the boss was silent, he continued: "The performance of restaurants and casinos is also very light. The total revenue of Wanque Tower as of the end of last month was 3.18 million taels."
Everyone was paralyzed after hearing these figures. In the past six months, almost no one raised their heads at the regular meetings of Wanquelou shopkeepers. At first, Wan Youcai would scold him loudly, but in the next few months, even he
There was no sound either.
Since Wang Xiaotian and Lian Yao fell down, the governor has also kept a certain distance from him inexplicably, causing Wan Youcai to completely lose support in Donghai City. In addition, the business of Ling's shop has been going crazy, and Wanque Tower has been completely destroyed.
Beaten to pieces.
Not long ago, he began to think about quitting. After receiving the secret letter from King Lin'an, he made up his mind to leave Donghai City and go to Linjiang City to develop.
"Boss, although we still have an income of 3,180,000 taels, we still have 20 million taels to spend on the backlog of payment for goods and the cost of operating Wanque Tower, so..."
"Pa!" Wan Youcai finally couldn't help the anger in his heart and slammed the table. Wan Li on the side immediately stood up and brought a cup of hot tea to his father to calm him down. Unexpectedly, Wan Youcai put that
The blue and white porcelain cup was thrown to the ground nearby, and the sound of the teacup smashing shocked everyone present. It seemed that the boss could not control his anger at all.
At this time, an unharmonious voice sounded weakly: "Boss, a woman named Liu Piaopiao came to our Wanque Tower yesterday and said..."
Wan Youcai looked coldly at the middle-aged man wearing an ice blue double-breasted wide-sleeved gown and asked, "What did you say?"
"He said... he has taken a fancy to the location of our Wanque Building and wants to buy... our Wanque Building!" The middle-aged man's voice became softer and softer.
After Wan Li heard this, he became furious. He was about to scold the shopkeeper who spoke, but Wan Youcai reached out to stop him. Wan Youcai asked with interest, "Is that woman from the Ling family?"
"Probably not. I've never seen him before. He doesn't look like someone from Donghai City."
"Has she ever said she wants to buy my Wanque Tower to do business?"
"It is said that they are going to open some kind of "Piaoxiangyuan", which is a bit like that kind of fragrant restaurant that sells art but not one's body!"
"Oh..." Wan Youcai has already decided in his heart to evacuate Donghai City and go to Linjiang City to find King Lin'an. Since someone is willing to take over Wanque Tower, it is good news for him. However, there is only one condition, and he cannot
Selling to the Ling family was his bottom line.
"Please help me make an appointment with Liu Piaopiao and see if she can afford the price I want!" Wan Youcai suddenly became calm.
"In addition, I also know that everyone here has been busy recently, busy finding a way out for themselves. I understand, if the tree falls, the hozen will disperse. No one in business can make a steady profit for many years. I have everything, so there are no big storms.
If you haven’t experienced it, don’t forget, I was born a street beggar.”
Seeing Wan Youcai's sharp eyes sweeping over them, everyone lowered their heads silently. Wan Youcai was very aware of everyone's every move.
"I have decided to move the Wanque Tower to Linjiang City. I have already chosen the address. I will not force you to give up your existing industries in Donghai City and come with me to develop in Linjiang City. Those who are willing to go
I welcome you with both hands. If you don’t want to go, I will give each shopkeeper one million taels, the supervisor one thousand taels, and the clerk 50 taels as severance pay. This can be regarded as my appreciation for everyone’s contribution over the years. Everyone goes to his own place.
Let's register there. The meeting is over!" After Wan Youcai said that, he turned around and left, leaving the shopkeeper Men with an incredulous look on his face.
At this time, Yunyi expressed admiration for Wan Youcai's decisiveness and magnanimity. He could take it up and let it go. This is the magnanimity that a big man should have. Wan Youcai's performance today made her question whether to leave Wanque Tower.
